  1. Facts about Rocks and Minerals By:Michelina

  2. Sedementary Rock • The rock is made out of bits and pieces of matter joined together • Its clay silt and gravel • In the rock cycle, it can form into igneous if it melts

  3. Igneous Rock • A rock formed when melted material cools and hardens. • Igneous rock are the oldest kind of rock • Igneous rock is started deep inside the earth were it is really hot

  4. Metamorphic Rock • Metamorphic rocks are rocks that change from one rock to another • These rocks form under the earth and were it is very hot and there is a lot of pressure. • They began changing at temperatures 100 – 800 degrees

  5. Michelina's Favorite Rock It's calcite!!!! It has manganese in it. It has iron in it. It crystallizes in the hexagonal system.

  6. VOLCANO'S!!!! Molten Rock and lava comes out of it
